Super cool work! What's next? Do you think with longer memory limits more interesting programs might emerge? Or is it substrate dependent?

Pretty cool! Simulating artificial cells and observing their complex emergent dynamics has been an interest of mine On a similar vein, have you seen this before? https://github.com…

If you mean this in a psychedelic context, my theory is the temporary dissolution of this “society” in recognising the “self” as “self”

Considering that brainfuck only has 8 characters and models are scoring at 6.2% I don't think tokenization is the issue

I think the product was just too early for its time, and there is not much demand for it. For what it's worth, the founder (Ren Ng) went back to academia, and was highly instrument…

Was going to comment the same but you beat me to it! On that note, reading the ChatGPT-esque summary in the linked article gave me more brain damage than any AI I've used so far

I am sorry to hear that OP, I hope you fight the good fight and wish you all the best. On a different note, a quick cursory glance of this company really makes me wonder who even g…

I work in building software as medical device. Can confirm it’s still a quagmire

Actually that is decent data and reflective of current SOTA in terms of cost performance tradeoff

I get your point, but wouldn't it be worse to have surgery for the rich and no surgery for the poors?

They are not intrinsically truth seekers, and any truth seeking behaviour is mostly tuned during the training process. Unfortunately it also means it can be easily undone. E.g. jus…

Doctor here 1. It’s generally difficult to quantify such risks in any meaningful manner 2. Provision of any number adds liability, and puts you in a damned-if-does, damned-if-it-do…

Reading the core paper discussed in the article, along with all its context, will take ~hours. This article is a great 5-minute update on the latest research with a well written pr…

The Kanji for Mitsubishi is 三菱, which literally means “three rhombus”. It is possible that they were independently invented, but the hypothesis on family crest crossovers still fee…

From the deals that come my way, I see a lot more older founders with experience these days. That said, I think the main reason why SV prefers younger founders is exactly because o…

Despite the flak Nvidia gets for VRAM sizes, 5090 seems to be a decent offer. Can’t say the same about the rest of the line. FWIW, it appears the best homelab set up would still be…

Precision = True Positive / (True Positive + False Positive) = 1 - False Positive Rate On that note, I'm surprised the precision / recall for fin models are 80% / 50%

While the article is not particular in depth, it is mostly accurate and provides a mostly well intentioned introduction to the concept and how that could relate to emergent propert…

Just FYI the link to your resume is broken

I'm by no means a UI expert, but 1. The email box / button needs to be much bigger. You probably want a more custom button style as well 2. Image loading speed is inconsistent; cho…

Great site! I've been playing around with it and seeing some interesting patterns. One small typo: Highest -> Higest on the graphs

One recent theory suggests that the appendix acts as a safehouse for beneficial gut bacteria in the event that the gut microflora is wiped out: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/art…

New to Hacker News - anyone know why the other thread about the Hong Kong protests ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20673676 ) disappeared from the front page? It has >100 co…
